Tokyo City Keiba Race 2 - Maiden Race
PEPTIDE LEON (8) Back from a break. Flashed home late into 3rd beaten by 2L last time at Kyoto and putting a tidy record together so far. Can win this. RED PEERLESS (9) 3yo first starter by Contrail for Mitsumasa Nakauchida. Keep your eye on the market. OKEN BLOOD (1) Good effort to place 3rd last start around here and gets a favourable barrier. Should muster plenty of early speed. Has run into the money regularly this preparation. Expect to go close. ZERO VISIBILITY (5) First run back from a 40 week break. Faded at the finish when 3rd last run at Kokura and having second career run. Expecting to settle positively. Winning hope.

Rattled home nicely into 3rd last start here and can save some energy from the draw. Has early speed and positions nicely. Very competitive this preparation and promising career start. Goes well and could be a value opportunity.

Odds of $6.50 and faded away to finish 7th last run at the track and back to a shorter distance. Not at all out of this race.

First run back from a 40 week break. Honest run on the speed before fading to finish 3rd beaten by 2 1/4L last run at Kokura. One of the punters top hopes at a very generous price.
